Hi,

this is the first time I, reading alone did not help, so I created an account and this is my first post. So Hello, first of all

I am using Debian Testing. Recently, Catalyst 9.8 was released, finally adding support for the 2.6.30 kernel (which I really waited for). After updating (apt-get dist-upgrade) and installing the driver again with the ati installer, the rendering of firefox etc. is very slow and it seems the power-management stopped working (it _seems_ that my battery time dropped, although I would have to confirm that later).

I already tried to reinstall the driver like a dozen time, both with the installer and off the repo. I already googled myself to death, but it seems, everyone who had a similar problem, solved it by reinstalling. I'll attach a few infos now:

my xorg.conf:
Code:
# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

I would describe myself as a semi-linux-n00b, so it would be nice, if you could go easy on linux terms and it would be best, to walk me step-by-step through the necessary steps (Oh, and english is not my native tounge, so please excuse any language mistakes or weirdness ^^)

Thank you in advance
